Chap 9 water and state changes theng Flashcards
at what temp does boiling happen (water)
100°C
a enclosed box has 100 cm3 of air in it. you press 100 more inside. How much cm3 of air is inside and why
100 cm3 as it does not have a fixed volume and it can be compressed
why does crushed ice help make smth cold faster compared to normal ice cubes
crushed ice has an increased surface/contact area with the item and thus be able to cool down the thing faster than a singular ice of the same volume
states of water
solid liquid gas
properties of solid
fixed volume, fixed shape, cannot be compressed
properties of water
fixed volume, does not have fixed shape, cannot be compressed
properties of gas
does of have fixed volume, does not have fixed shape, can be compressed

whats the freezing point
0°C
whats the melting point
0°C
Since the temperature of ice remains as 0°C when it melts, it is not gaining heat . true or false eplain
false. when ice melts, it is gaining heat however the heat is used to help the particles in ice to break away from one another thus the temperature of melting ice remains as 0°C until all ice has turned into water
